I am writing to tell you what an incredible impact these methods had on my life! I have had type 2 diabetes for 27 years. For me, the worst part of this horrible disease is the severe pain I constantly get in my feet. The pain is so bad that I avoid standing and walking as much as possible. I've got to tell you that within the first month, my feet stopped hurting altogether and I can now walk totally pain free.
Believe it or not, I even danced at my niece's wedding last month, something I have not done in a many years. I've been following the book for six months now and my blood sugar is well within normal range. I feel great!
I recommend you use the Type 2 Diabetes Destroyer to naturally reverse your diabetes.

I was diagnosed last year as type 2 diabetic diet controlled but I had no symptoms, it was found through thyroid testing, I don't drink water, I have not lost my sex drive, my eyesight is perfect. I have suffered depression several years ago and I did feel tired with no energy and woke in the night for the toilet and did have mood swings. It doesn't sound anything like a tumour but to go back to your doctor and ask for a blood test, they can do it in the surgery with a finger prick for blood, also talk to him about depression and possibly medication to help you sleep. Good Luck.

Yep, sounds like it but also watch out for excessive sweating nausea, vomiting, weakness all throughout the body. Go to the store and buy some ketone strips. You pee on the strip and it will tell you if you have ketones, if you do go to the doctor or hospital ASAP. You might be suffering from ketoacidosis which is caused by high blood sugar and can be fatal. I am a type 1 diabetic and found out the hard way I had all the symptoms you just described along with the symptoms I just typed get it checked!

Ummm.... could be. Go to the doc and get your blood glucose checked. It's easy and will tell you if you're diabetic or not. If it turns out you are... don't freak, there's plenty you can do about it. Save these links, just in case.
For type I and type II diabetics (and those who are overweight and could potentially become diabetic). Copy and bookmark the webpages I‘ve listed below… they are invaluable for those with diabetes and/or weight problems...
I've found a wonderful book that will help you control your diabetes and minimize or even eliminate the complications. Some folks who became diabetic due to poor diet and obesity are effectively cured by following the advice in this book. I'm a type II (inherited), but it helps all types, especially those who became diabetic due to poor eating habits. It's by an author who has really done his homework, Patrick Quillin, Phd. It's called, "The Diabetes Improvement Program". I have tried his suggestions and found them to be very helpful. I have no complications whatsoever and my blood sugar levels are quite stable. Yes, I still have to take Metformin (Glucophage) daily, but it's the minimum dosage (500mg) and I only have to take it twice a day. I have been off Metformin for as much as a week, but this was with vigorous exercise. Many, what I call, non-hereditary type IIs (those that don't have a close relative who had it) have gotten off medication completely, just with diet, exercise, and supplements. So, in some instances, it most certainly can be 'effectively' cured. Read more about it here:
http://www.diabetesimprovement.com/
The book explains what's going on in our system and what to do about it. It's really easy and inexpensive. It's basically diet, supplements, and exercise. For example, did you know that cinnamon helps blood sugar absorption? It also controls cholesterol and triglycerides. This is according to the USDA:

For men: Are you suffering from erectile dysfunction? I was. Yes, WAS. Now that everything's under control, I'm able to have nearly normal sex again. I've also put together a little webpage highlighting some of the things I've learned here:

Yes, but there are also other medical attention that has similar symptoms. To be conclusive whether you have diabetes or not, simply just check your blood sugar level. This will save you a lot in terms of going to the right doctor for further exam and evaluations.
Take care.

The tiredness, constant thirst, dizziness and weight problems could be signs of diabetes. You need to see a doctor to have blood work done so they can check your blood sugar levels. Usually, the doctor will have you 'fast' so that the test will show up correctly. Good luck.
